Glad you had a good un. Bit of a shambles after Dunlop mind you Alan and I came back.along from Muirkirk thinking the worst because you guys didn't turn up.

Not to worry if everyone's fine.

I think that's the street going away for the winter too. Don't mind the cold and the wet. But hate having to wash her afterwards.

heheheee. my fault.

had great fun today no new roads for me but was nice to ride them again. i love the Ayr road, twisty as a twisty thing

bike now due a service so might as well do a major one and put it away till next season unless we get some cracking winter days.

was actually very warm but wet going home from the mates at 11ish

thanks guys for a great day.

Would loved to have been there, but was on a delayed ferry from Ijmuiden (delayed because of poor weather). Got into the cabin, went for a shower, got out of the shower as the boat was leaving the harbour walls and then had to lie down for the entire crossing. I was so ill, but I didn't let the folk in the rooms around about me being sick, trigger me into being sick! Oh no! Had a few ratchet straps on the bike and the crew still came round and put more on. It was pretty rough.

Anyway, still doing bikey stuff, just there always seems to be SV stuff coinciding with my stuff. Got a rally up in Caithness this week-end and one up in the Spittal of Glenshee next month.....just need to get 2 and a half weeks worth of flies, muck and oil off the GSX-R now!

Andy your should get a street, it tells you what your MPG is automatically, and your average speed, which is always depressing...
